    Thus means nothing, I have been signed up multiple times to that site by people who don’t understand that my emails address is not theirs. And apparently Ashley Madison doesn’t validate email addresses.

      That’s actually pretty crazy. For one, it’s wild that they let multiple accounts go to your one email. Second, it’s wild that multiple people just happened to randomly type in your email

        There are a few people with a similar name to me that don’t seem to understand how email works. I get signed up for all sorts of their things. I get notices of their pizza deliveries, when they apply for car loans, flight info, hotel stays, I even end up in family message email chains.

        Every once in a while I go though and delete these accounts, that’s how it’s happened multiple times. Sometimes I just take the account over though, if it’s got reward points or something.
